The thing I like the most about FTE is "OPEN MINDS"

TALKING TO A WALL

When words spill out of our minds
And fall like raindrops
Collected by the gutters with which
People protect their heads from ideas

Running uselessly amid the leaves of yesteryear
And the trash accumulated in between
Spilling out unsorted and unwanted
To fall on the ground unheard and unheeded

As though to drain off a roof
During a storm we expected
Took for granted
And sheltered ourselves from

What communication can occur?
For then what is spoken, written, or seen
Is simply dross, excess chaff -
Quickly abandoned

How may I connect to
That which is disconnected?

~Curious...

You've seen that before on other boards. We don't do that here. That's why I like FTE.

One can always find an antagonist, and hash it through politely so that we all find answers...

That's easy. Hold down the "Ctrl" button on the keyboard and use the scroll wheel on the mouse to enlarge the print.

Just send payment to...................

I've got $100K in a bank in Switzerland. I'll give you $20K (in ones and twentys as you desire) of it if you help me get it here. As a measure of your good faith, please send $5K to me first so that I know I can trust you.

Details will follow.


ctrl and scroll? Actually, I just have to right click and scroll . Go Firefox! Maybe that's in one of my extensions? I forget. Also works with pics/images .

Didn't know that though, thanks. The above offer goes for you too. I have another large amount in...(throws dart at World map)...Liechtenstein. Please hurry!

OH! That 'Open Minds'... (pvt joke)

Funny - I'm near blind as a wino in a wood alcohol warehouse, but I can see the print even without my two dollar readers

~Oh yeah, classy eyewear! It's a "CHEAP SUNGLASSES" ... umm, thang...
